CABINET COUNCIL.

The Alaska Seal Fisheries. the Fisheries
Question and England's Dendnd on Hay1
Considered.
WASHINGTON, April s.-The Cabinet met
at eleven O'Clock yesterday and remained
in session over three hours. The meeting
was devoted almost entirely to the consid-
GRAFTON of international questions, the most
important relating to the Canadian fish
cries, the policy of Great Britain in regard
to the island of Hayti and the seal fisheries
of Alaska.
In regard to the fisheries question it Is
understood that information has been re-
celved to the effect that England sustalns
the position taken by the Canadian authori-
ties and is in no wise disposed to make the
concessions requested by this Government
This question was considered by the Cabi-
net with view to the advisability of suit
able action by the President under the pro-
visions Of the RetaliatorY act.
The alleged demand of Great Britain for
the possession of the Tortugas island or the
payment by the Hayden Government Of
81 200, 900 in settlement of old claims, was
considered at some length. The United
States have great interests in Hayti, com
mercial and otherwise, and are deeply con-
cerned In it's welfare and prosperity, and
correspondence will be opened with Great
Britain on this subject,
The Alaska seal fisheries were discussed,
with a view to their better protec1io from
foreign interference. 1t is represented that
the interests are now threatened by the
wanton and wholesale destruction Of seals in
the open ocean. 1t seems that during the
day the female seals leave their young on
the shores of the islands in charge Of the
males while they go miles away in search
of food, with which they return at night
Recently practice has sprung up Of ootch-
ing the females while in search of food.
Their young perish as matter of course.
The difficulty Of controlling this matter
arises from the alleged want Of jurisdiction
of the American Government over those
waters beyond the three mile limit

Railroad Rupture.

CHICAGO, April Failure to agree upon
a basis for division of rates to and from
Mississippi river points on Missouri river
business, and points beyond, has caused a
complete rupture between lines east from
Chicago and those west from this city. All
through billing Of freight between points
in the East and Missouri river points via
Chicago has been stopped. Eastern roads
barge local rates TO Chicago and locak
rates are charged from Chicago and West
ern points, which, Of course, make rates
via Chicago materially higher than via St.
Louis. Besides, all freight from the East
has to be rebilled at Chicago. which IS an
additional embarrassment Roads west OF
Chicago will resist the demands Of Eastern

A MONUMENT To GRIDLEY.
History OF the Famous Sanitary Flour
Sack

The Elko Independent reprints the
history of the sanitary sack of -four,
upon which Ruel Colt Gridley in 1854
raised $275,0O0 for tho benefit of the
wounded soldiers. It is history that
bears reprinting we'll. Gridley had
lost an election bet in Austin. Nevada,
and the forfeit was that he should
carry n sack of flour upon his should
ers. The bet being paid, he put it up
at auction tor the benefit of the Union
Sanitary Commission. The first bid
was $500, then $3.50, and then $l,l15,
and finally it was sold for $4,000.
Then Gold Hill wanted chance III
the sack of -four, and Mrs Grid!ey
came with it. Cold Hill paid $5,225
for it. The party went to Silver City
and got $l,375, and then to Dayton
and got $1,S47 so. Through the
Washoe mines they got $4,000, Vir-
ginia City putting up $l2,995 in coin
and some mining stocks. Mr.. Grid
ley then went to San Francisco and
Sacramento, and finally started for
the East with his original sack of
-four and $4,000 in coin and three
blocks iu Austin and house aud lot in
Dayton to the credit of the fund.
Through all his journeyiug he bore
his own expenses and the expressage
of money, and raised in coin $275,-
900, which WAS promptly turned ovor
to the Sanitary Commission for the
benefit of the soldiers of the Union.
A monument 20 feet high, made of
California granite and Italion marble,
IL soon to be finished and dedicated In
Rural Cemetery, Stockton, Cal, in
honor of the hero of the Sanitary
sack. The figure is to be made from
tie best Italian marble, and is To be
cut from a photograph of Gridley to
closely resemble him. The monu-
ment will be raised in the Grand
Army plat, when the foundation is
completed, and the committee is only
waiting the arrival of the statue from
Italy to complete the work.

The story OF John Borbauk, who on
Saturday sacrificed his life to save
that of his child, is an unusually sad
one. He was bricklayer by trade,
but had earned nothing for the sup
port of his family since last Fall, on
account of sickness and the recent
brickIayers' strike, and his wife and
child are nnw left in most destitute
circumstances. being without the
means te provide even the common
necessaries of life On Saturday af-
ternoon Vorbauk was playing with his
little boy. ID months old. in front Of
his home at 33S North street. which
Immediately adipins the Northwest

he screams of the children, he lacked

tbearing down upon his boy. With
one bound he had the child In his
arms, and, the engine striking him al
the same time, he threw the baby
clear off the tracks. and was himself
dragged about fifty feet before the
engine could he stopped. When he
was picked up il was found that he
had sustained fatal injuries about The

afternoon. Vorbauk's body now lie,

poor wife, who is almost crAzed by
grief, and can hardly realize her most
forlorn condition as yet. The man,
who was Pole, seems to have been
particularly unfortunate since his ar
rival in America, and, with little
knowledge of the language and Gus
toms of his adopted country, has had
hard struggle to keep his family from
want. Vorbauk's neighbors all declare
that he was a temperate, hard working

IN common with the majority of both

the State or Territory in which the MP
pointments are made, and hence we be-
iicve that the Presld, mt erred in ap-
pointing a resident Of Iowa as Survey
or General of Nevada in the face of the
fnct that there are resident surveyors
nInply competent TO perform the duties
"f the Office. But under the circum-
ftauces as they now exist, from the best
information we are able to obtain in

into consideration the fact that many
citizens of the State, who entertr in tie

the appointment of General Irish, be-
Eeving that his retention in the Office
would rebound to the interest of the
